It is an absolute fucking disgrace that with everything going on in the world, the centerpiece of the first page of today’s NYTIMES is an article titled, “Before Clerk, Francis Met With a Gay Friend.” Even the piece on the mass murder in Oregon is pushed to the side for the sake of this deeply idiotic article.
